STA engineer

Key Responsibilities

• Constraint Development & Validation: Create, validate, and manage SDC constraints (clocks, I/O paths, generated clocks, false/multicycle paths) to accurately reflect the design‘s intent.
• Timing Analysis & Closure: Run full-chip and block-level STA using sign-off tools like Synopsys PrimeTime or Cadence Tempus.
• Constraint QoR Checks: Evaluate and debug timing reports to fix setup, hold, and DRC (Design Rule Checking) violations.
• Cross-Domain Analysis: Perform Clock Domain Crossing (CDC) analysis and manage constraints for asynchronous crossings.
• ECO Execution: Drive Engineering Change Orders (ECOs) by partnering with Physical Design (PD) and RTL teams.
• Scripting: Develop scripts using Tcl, Perl, or Python for automation and workflow efficiency.
